Great Swordsman

For three days in a row, Li Mu lived in the imperial courtyard of the White Horse Temple, but unfortunately, the man in black never showed up.

Li Mu guessed that the man in black might have felt that he had already frightened the snake, so he wanted to wait for himself to relax. Of course, it might also be related to the court dispute.

After the Great Tribute was interrupted by King Qingping, the next morning, the Dagan court proposed to exchange the places of Dongtian Fudi with the diplomatic missions of various countries. It is a beautiful name to strengthen exchanges. As for the tribute, it can be reduced by [-]%.

The missions of various countries were naturally unwilling, because Dagan made it clear that he wanted to gain more with less, and they fought hard with reason, and quarreled with Dagan and all the officials in Tianyuan Hall for three consecutive days.

It was not until the fourth day that they finally gave up.

Because, the little emperor Ji Xuan seemed to have got rid of the psychological shadow brought by King Qingping, and actually proposed to open another big tribute, and let the Tianjiao of Daqian compete with the Tianjiao of other countries!

However, in the last big tribute, it was only a matter of time before Daqian won four out of five games, and five out of six games. The winning rate was so low that it was outrageous!
If there is another big tribute, I am afraid the result will be the same. At that time, most countries will not only not get the tribute and the quota of Dongtian blessed land, but even pay three quotas of Dongtian blessed land!
That being the case, it is better to agree to the "friendly exchange" of Daqian, so that at least the money will not be lost.

Although Meng Yuan's third prince, Tu Lie, tried his best to stop him, in the end, he still couldn't change the situation!
……

White Horse Temple.

Li Mu was overjoyed when he heard the news!
Now that the court dispute is over, it's time for the missions from various countries to leave Beijing one after another!
Once the man in black returns to the Western Regions, even if he masters magical powers, it will be impossible for him to come to him across thousands of mountains and rivers!
"If the man in black is unwilling, he can only assassinate me in the last few days!" In the meditation room of Zen, Li Mu was conspiring with Huineng, planning to wait for the man in black all night.

Although Huineng looks old, with white eyebrows and wrinkled face, after cultivating immortality, his inner youth has long been rejuvenated, and he is as powerful as a dragon!

All night is not a problem at all.

"The night is long, benefactor, how about we talk about a game?" Huineng was very elegant, moved out the chessboard, and prepared to play chess with Li Mu.

Li Mu couldn't wish for it!

The chessboard is carved from ancient wood, and the whole body exudes a faint fragrance, which is refreshing.

The black and white chess pieces are also carved from jade, which is warm and cool, and has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind!

Because Li Mu is a guest, he holds black and Hui Neng holds white.

Do black first.

Li Mu first placed the yellowed and greasy Buddhist scriptures next to the chessboard, and then landed on the Tianyuan position in the middle!

Huineng lifted his eyelids, and said with a smile: "The benefactor, in the name of the Immortal of Poetry and Sword, is famous inside and outside the Daqian, and the pride of all countries, like Yuan Luozi today, wonderful, wonderful!"

As he spoke, he landed on the left side of Tianyuan.

Li Mu only thought that he was bragging to each other in business, and while quickly making moves, he boasted to each other: "Master Huineng's move is also at its peak, it's like a pen drawn by a god, it's a flying fairy!"

"..." For a while, Master Huineng couldn't continue, it was too blatant!

He shook his head with a wry smile, and gave another shot.

After a few blows, Li Mu chuckled lightly, then sighed and said: "If you can get down to this level with me, the whole world can only be Master Huineng. Unfortunately, Master lost."

"The poor monk lost?" Huineng looked at the chessboard, his snow-white eyes furrowed. He carefully deduced the chess game, but both sides only lost seven or eight pieces. It is impossible to deduce the overall outcome!
Could it be that benefactor Li's deduction ability has reached its peak, and he can see the whole situation from a glimpse?

Huineng was shocked, and then, when he saw Li Mu's son, he smiled and said, "Master, please take a look!"

Look?
What does the poor monk look at?
Huineng stared blankly at the chessboard, his old face was full of puzzlement.

"Five sons Jackie Chan!" Li Mu was not happy, could this old bald donkey still renege on his debt?
"Five sons become dragons?" Huineng saw five black chess pieces lined up in a straight line, but... what does this mean?
"Master, aren't we playing backgammon?" Li Mu frowned, you took out Reversi, you don't want to play chess with me, do you?

"Gobang..." Huineng looked at the five dragons, his face twitched faintly, he was half paid, his trembling hands slowly clasped together, as if to suppress the waves in his heart, and said: "Amitabha, the benefactor, the poor monk grew up so big, never I have heard of backgammon. What we play is Go."

"Go? Master, don't tease me. I've never heard of Go when I grow up. What we play is backgammon!" Li Mu looked serious.

"Namo Amitabha..." Huineng closed his eyes and began to recite the scriptures.

"Master, okay, why did you suddenly recite the scriptures?" Li Mu asked strangely.

Who knows, it's okay if Li Mu didn't ask, but when he asked, Huineng's chanting became even louder: "Namo Amitabha..."

"Hey." Li Mu shook his head and sighed, secretly said: This is because I can't beat me, and I plan to play tricks.

Fortunately, I am a magnanimous person, and I don't have the same knowledge as monks.

Amidst the lengthy chanting, Li Mu's eyelids slowly became heavy, and finally, with his head on the chessboard, he fell asleep.

"Amitabha." Huineng finally stopped chanting, and said to himself, "I didn't expect the poor monk to be angry, sin, sin."

Then, he blew out the candle, and the quiet room was plunged into darkness for an instant.

Hui Neng meditated with his eyes closed and kept silent.

Time passed slowly.

At three o'clock in the ugly hour, Huineng suddenly opened his eyes. Electricity seemed to be generated out of thin air in the dark quiet room. He turned his head suddenly, only to see that the Buddhist scriptures placed beside the chessboard suddenly moved without wind, and the pages of scriptures stained with oil were tumbling quickly.

At this time, Li Mu, who was sleeping on the chessboard with his head on his head, also opened his eyes quietly.

coming!

Li Mu got up silently, and with his right hand, Qixing Longyuan had already started.

woohoo...

Invisible ripples rippled in the dark quiet room, and the next moment, the man in black appeared.

"Amitabha!"

At this moment, Huineng slapped him with a slap, and the golden Buddha's light turned into King Ming's anger, instantly dyeing the dark quiet room red!
Li Mu was also polite, and the moment Huineng made a move, he slashed across with his sword.

"Whoever abandons me, don't let the day of yesterday stay, and whoever messes with my heart, today is so worrying!"

The bright sword light instantly pierced the crimson Buddha's light and entered the eyes of the man in black!
The reason why Li Mu used the sword formula to break his sorrows was because Master Huineng was there, and his output was not bad. In this case, he had to stand in the support position!
As long as the man in black is delayed by Duanchou for a second and a half, he will never be able to escape the wrath of Huineng's King Ming!

However, the man in black seemed to be completely unaffected by Duanchou. He sensed the danger the moment he appeared, retreated quickly, and clapped his palms at the same time.

boom……

The sound of roaring mountains and rivers suddenly resounded through the quiet room, and at the same time two rounds of golden light gushed out from the palm of the man in black. In the golden light, there were undulating mountains and continuous rivers, and there was a huge golden Buddha standing in the mountains and rivers.

This golden Buddha has a peaceful face, but he points to the sky with one hand and the earth with the other, as if he is the only one in the sky and the earth!

"It really is the Buddha moving mountains and rivers in the palm of the Tathagata!" Li Mu's expression tightened.

In the next instant, Buddha Moving Mountains and Rivers collided with King Ming's anger and sorrow.

boom……

Terrifying energy fluctuations turned into violent waves and swung away from the three of them.

The man in black spurted blood instantly and retreated, but there was a black scarf on his face, and the blood was absorbed by the black scarf. At the same time, when he moved his feet, invisible ripples quickly enveloped him!
The air wave swept through the quiet room, Huineng remained motionless, and while the monk's robe was hunting, he made a seal with one hand: "Hell seal!"

The golden Buddha's light bloomed fiercely, and at the extreme, it seemed to turn into darkness, like eighteen layers of hell, covering the man in black.

Li Mu on the side was hit by the violent air wave, and there was a sound of bone cracking in his chest, but he still endured the severe pain and repaired the sword immediately.

At the same time, his mind turned: No matter you are Xuan Kong or Xuan Ling, you are all from the Bodhi Temple in the ancient Loulan country, so...

Qinghai Changyun dark snow mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass in the distance.The yellow sand wears the golden armor in a hundred battles, and if you don't break Loulan, you will never return it!

zheng~~
The deafening sound of the sword sounded like piercing through the wind and sand, and the cyan sword glow turned into a billowing yellow dragon, which was the first to strike, and crossed Huineng's hell mark in the blink of an eye, and cut into the heart of the man in black!

In the next moment, the mark of hell suddenly descended on the chest of the man in black!

hum...

Ripples passed, and the man in black had disappeared into the quiet room.

"Run away?" Li Mu coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, feeling a little uncomfortable.

It was because Huineng's attack was too domineering, coupled with the man in black and his attack, he couldn't bear the aftermath caused by it!

However, Li Mu was sure that the man in black was definitely more seriously injured than him!
"Amitabha." Huineng clasped his hands together and sighed, "As expected of his supernatural powers, he can resist the actions of all sentient beings through his thoughts. Even poor monks can't keep him. Donor, I'm really sorry."

"The master is too polite! If there is no master tonight, I will not be able to injure him severely. I am satisfied." Li Mu said.

Moreover, after this battle, the man in black might not dare to come again, no, there should be no chance to come again!

Li Mu picked up the yellowed Buddhist scriptures on the ground, and asked Hui Neng to erase the spiritual thoughts on the scriptures.

"It should be so." Huineng immediately raised the relic, and the bright golden Buddha light instantly enveloped the quiet room.

Li Mu's heart moved, and he suddenly took out those spiritual objects and tributes from the Western Regions that had been pressed in the Lion Kingdom before.

These things were sent back by Princess Peacock, and Peacock is the princess of the ancient kingdom of Loulan. He suspected that the man in black had tampered with these spiritual things too!
Then, Li Mu took out the wooden bowl and the doll sleeping in the wooden bowl, let the Buddha's light purify it, and took a bath.

At the same time, Li Mu swallowed the tears of a few dolls, and used the Dragon Blood Demon to heal the rib injury.

The baby's tears have a miraculous effect on healing. He was hit by the blast just now and broke two ribs, but with the soaking of these tears and the help of Dragon Blood Fiend, the two ribs recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye!

If I get Xuanshuisha and Qingmusha from the Mo family again, I might really be reborn with my limbs... Li Mu was very happy.

After half the payment and the purification was over, Hui Neng took back the relic and said helplessly, "Alms, only Buddhist scriptures contain divine thoughts."

"Ah, master, this is actually my incense money." Li Mu opened his eyes, and silently took the tribute from the Western Regions, as well as the black dragon fish and the emperor liquid back to the dragon scale space, and then threw the doll into the wooden bowl and hid it in his arms .

As for other miscellaneous spirits, Li Mu doesn't feel bad!
"..." Huineng didn't want to accept it at first, but seeing Li Mu's actions, if he didn't accept it, it might affect his practice, so he had no choice but to accept it: "So, thank you benefactor, Amitabha."

"Master." Li Mu touched his chest, and asked, "I wonder if Master knows which temple the eminent monks from Bodhi Temple have placed orders in after entering Beijing?"

"Should the benefactor look for them?" Huineng said in a deep voice, "That man has supernatural powers. Even if he is seriously injured, the benefactor may not be able to kill him."

Possessing supernatural powers, as long as a few more people or spiritual objects are placed with divine thoughts, they can go back and forth in an instant, and ordinary people can't kill them at all!

And with that person's prudence, he must have already done so!

Li Mu said: "I just want to confirm the identity of the man in black."

Regardless of whether the man in black is Xuan Kong or Xuan Ling, he must be seriously injured at this time. As long as he finds them, no, just find one of them, Li Mu will be able to confirm the identity of the man in black!

Hui Neng thought for a while and said, "The last time Master Xuankong came to our temple, I heard him mention that all the monks in the Bodhi Temple came with the Peacock Princess. Not surprisingly, they should be with the Peacock Princess."

That is Honglu Temple!
Li Mu left immediately.

After leaving the mountain gate, Li Mu went straight to Honglu Temple!

Li Mu rode his horse and galloped wildly, the street was empty, it was convenient for him to ride at full speed.

The cold wind was cold, and at the beginning of Yinshi, he finally rushed outside Honglu Temple!

Honglu Temple is extremely spacious, and there are as many pavilions and other courtyards as there are stars, and even in the middle of the night, there are still many soldiers training outside the gate, and the guards can be called strict.

"Stop, this is Honglu Temple, no one else is allowed to enter!" As soon as Li Mucai approached, a guard appeared and stopped him.

Li Mu didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly took out the deacon badge of the Imperial Academy, and said coldly: "According to the queen's order, no idlers can stop you, otherwise..."

Queen's will?

The guards tightened their expressions and checked carefully. After confirming that Li Mu was holding the deacon token of the Imperial Academy, his attitude softened immediately: "I don't know why the empress sent you here late at night, why?"

"It's about Qing Yu, the eminent monk of the Bodhi Temple. Don't ask too many questions, just take me to see them!" Li Mu said in a deep voice.

"But this will..." The guards looked at each other, hesitant.

But at this moment, a guard seemed to recognize something, and said, "You...you are Li Mu, the Poem and Sword Fairy?!"

"Poetry Sword Immortal?"

"How is it possible, how could he appear here?"

"A few days ago, Shi Jianxian fought against Dao Demon. I happened to be on duty, so I watched the battle with my wife in a teahouse. It can't be wrong, he is Shi Jianxian!!"

"You, are you really a sword fairy?"

The guards surrounded him, their expressions were quite excited, and some of them even tried to touch Li Mu!

With such a star-chasing attitude, can Li Mu get used to them?

He immediately moved his sword heart, and the powerful sword force instantly forced all the guards to retreat step by step.

But the guards were happy instead of angry!
"It's such a powerful sword, it must be Shi Jianxian!"

"It's actually Shi Jianxian coming here. Oh, it's really flooding the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family anymore."

"Shi Jianxian, my family and I admire you very much! If you are lucky enough to join the sword sect of Shi Jianxian, you are really lucky!"

"Don't make trouble." Li Mu looked at them majestically, and said, "I have something important to do, Empress Empress..."

"Oh, since you are a Poetry and Sword Immortal, there is no problem. Please, oh no, I will personally take you to find the monk at the Bodhi Temple!" The captain of the guard pushed the crowd away forcefully, and grabbed Li Mu's little hand brutally. Entered Honglu Temple.

Seeing that they were one step behind, the rest of the guards beat their chests and stomped their feet, secretly hating their slowness.

Li Mu calmly shook off the hand of the guard who claimed to be open, and asked about the situation of the monks in the Bodhi Temple.

Zhang Kai naturally knew everything: "It's strange to say that the ancient kingdom of Loulan came with the Lion Kingdom, but when the Lion Kingdom left this afternoon, Princess Loulan and the monks from the Bodhi Temple did not leave."

Li Mu sneered in his heart: The man in black must have wanted to assassinate me again before he left.

And being able to control the Peacock Princess, the identity of the man in black is ready to be revealed!
Turning left and right, passing through pavilions and pavilions, finally, the two came to a small building.

Zhang Kai said: "Princess Peacock lives on the second floor, her maid lives on the first floor, and the monks from the Bodhi Temple live in the side room in the small courtyard next to it. Immortal Shijian, I will wake them up for you."

"It's troublesome." Li Mu didn't stop him, and followed him into the courtyard with a smile.

There are side rooms in two rows of the yard, and they are very rude when they are opened and they wake up all the monks physically.

"Amitabha, it's still early, why did the benefactor wake us up so early?"

"Could it be that Honglu Temple wants to drive people away?"

The dissatisfied voices of the monks came out, followed by Zhang Kai shouting: "What's the name, don't wake up your princess, this time the deacon of the Imperial Academy wants to see you, put on your clothes and come out!"

He knew the importance, so he only mentioned the deacon of the Imperial Academy, and did not mention the name of Shi Jianxian.

Amidst the chaotic voices, monks who were not well dressed came out one by one.

Li Mu stood in the middle of the two rows of wing rooms, his sharp eyes quickly swept across their faces until he saw a tall and strong monk!

Xuan Kong!

Li Mu's pupils shrank, since Xuan Kong appeared, the man in black can only be a disciple of Buddha!
"Amitabha, it turns out to be the benefactor Li." Xuankong saw Li Mu and stepped forward with a smile: "I don't know if the benefactor is coming late at night, what's the matter?"

Li Mu smiled and asked back: "Master Xuankong really doesn't know?"

Xuan Kong shook his head.

"Then invite Master Buddha to come out." Li Mu said with a smile.

"Buddhist?" Xuan Kong laughed and said, "It turns out that the benefactor is here to find Buddha. It's a pity. Brother Xuan Ling has already returned to the Western Regions before us."

"Really?" Just as Li Mu was about to say something, a voice suddenly came from a side room: "My lord, I found something!"

Li Mu's eyes flashed, and instantly turned into a sword light, rushing into the wing.

As soon as he entered, Li Mu smelled a strong smell of blood.

Zhang Kai stood in front of the bed, there were still many blood stains on the floor, judging by the color, it should have dripped within an hour.

"Senior brother Xuanling is injured?" Xuankong followed in, seeing the blood, his face showed a worried look.

"My lord, the bed is still warm, what kind of Buddha is this, he should have left not long ago, and he should still be in Honglu Temple!" Zhang Kai said in a deep voice.

How cunning, he immediately cast his magic foot and left when he heard the slightest sign of trouble. It seems...his injuries were more serious than I imagined.

Li Mu sneered in his heart.

Looking at the smile on Li Mu's face, Zhang Kai seemed to understand something, and said, "My lord, if you want to search Honglu Temple, I'm afraid you need the approval of Lord Shaoqing."

The minister of Honglu Temple was originally Ji Chen, but unfortunately he died, so Shaoqing is in charge here.

"Master Xuankong, what do you think?" Li Mu looked at Xuankong with a smile.

Xuan Kong was stunned, and said: "This... all depends on the adults."

"Then there will be no search." Li Mu said.

Xuanling has mastered the magic foot power, and it is impossible to find him.

His purpose of coming here has also been achieved.

As for the Buddha son Xuanling, we will have a long time to come!
